- Question
The sum of how many terms of the series 6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + ... is 1800?
Options- A. 16
- B. 24
- C. 20
- D. 18
- E. 22
- Correct Answer
- 24
Explanation
This is an A.P. in which a = 6, d = 6 and S n = 1800Then, n [2a + (n - 1)d] = 1800 2 ⟹ n [2 x 6 + (n - 1) x 6] = 1800 2 ⟹ 3n (n + 1) = 1800
⟹ n(n + 1) = 600
⟹ n2 + n - 600 = 0
⟹ n2 + 25n - 24n - 600 = 0
⟹ n(n + 25) - 24(n + 25) = 0
⟹ (n + 25)(n - 24) = 0
⟹ n = 24
Number of terms = 24.

Correct Answer: 10
Explanation:
(4 61 + 4 62 + 4 63 + 4 64 ) = 4 61 x (1 + 4 + 4 2 + 4 3 ) = 4 61 x 85
= 460 x (4 x 85)
= (460 x 340), which is divisible by 10.
Correct Answer: 8500
Explanation:
9548 16862 = 8362 + x + 7314 x = 16862 - 8362 ----- = 8500 16862 -----
Correct Answer: 2
Explanation:
The smallest prime number is 2.
Correct Answer: 4x - 9y
Explanation:
By hit and trial, we put x = 5 and y = 1 so that (3 x + 7 y ) = (3 x 5 + 7 x 1) = 22, which is divisible by 11.
∴ (4x + 6y) = ( 4 x 5 + 6 x 1) = 26, which is not divisible by 11;
(x + y + 4 ) = (5 + 1 + 4) = 10, which is not divisible by 11;
(9x + 4y) = (9 x 5 + 4 x 1) = 49, which is not divisible by 11;
(4x - 9y) = (4 x 5 - 9 x 1) = 11, which is divisible by 11.
Correct Answer: 10
Explanation:
Clearly, (2272 - 875) = 1397, is exactly divisible by N.
Now, 1397 = 11 x 127
∴ The required 3-digit number is 127, the sum of whose digits is 10.
Correct Answer: 37
Explanation:
| Given Exp. = 666 x | 1 | x | 1 | = 37 |
| 6 | 3 |
Correct Answer: 114345
Explanation:
99 = 11 x 9, where 11 and 9 are co-prime.
By hit and trial, we find that 114345 is divisibleby 11 as well as 9. So, it is divisible by 99.
Correct Answer: 3⁄1400
Explanation:
| Required H.C.F. = | H.C.F. of 9, 12, 18, 21 | = | 3 |
| L.C.M. of 10, 25, 35, 40 | 1400 |
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
Required number = H.C.F. of (91 - 43), (183 - 91) and (183 - 43)
= H.C.F. of 48, 92 and 140 = 4.
Correct Answer: 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7
Explanation:
Clearly, 252 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 7
